Malaysian youths push protest votes

A

campaign by young Malaysians to cast protest votes is picking up steam as the Southeast Asian country braces for a potentially acrimonious national election between two candidates that must be held by August.

But youths pushing the #UndiRosak, or spoil your vote, campaign on social media, say they refuse to pick between Mahathir Mohammad, 92, and Prime Minister Najib Razak, 64. The plan — cast your votes, but mark your ballots wrongly to make sure no political party benefits. (Reuters)
